Alchemy Skill

Supernatural brought us a new skill: Alchemy.

This skill can be learned by two different methods: you can read Alchemy skill books which can be found at the book shop like any other book or you can "Research Alchemy" using the alchemy station, a new object packed with this EP. The main drawback of reading Alchemy skill books is that that your Sims won't discover new elixirs until they do some research in the alchemy station.

If you have the Ambitions installed, your Sim will be able to work as a self-employed Alchemist and earn their pay by selling elixirs.

Elixir Guide

Below is a list of all elixirs and the effects they will have in the Sims who drink them. You'll notice that some elixirs have the same icon, well, apparently EA were not feeling THAT creative. Some elixirs can only be learned by reading their recipe book, which is sold at the book store.
